Yeah, he's famous for a few reasons, one being the brawl at The Palace

One day in your memoirs, you'll describe me as inscrutable.

Bryan's point was that these people didn't know him to see him, which I didn't either. I know who Ron Artiste is, I've seen the fan punching thing, but couldn't really pick the guy out of a crowd.

Of course once I read his shirt that said RON ARTEST on it, I clued in.

It's totally Bryan, however, to fixate over the skit and demand context, when it entirely was a simple sight gag. It could have been anyone - guy in the background oversees something wacky, the end. But Bryan being Bryan, has to go "MY GOD WHO WAS THAT? WHO WAS THAT GUY?? WHAT WAS HE DOING THERE??? WHAT DID IT MEAN DAVE?????"

Bryan really overdoes it on the "I don't watch sports" stuff. It's constant. Any time anyone mentions a non wrestling/MMA athletic pursuit, he starts on the "WELL I DON'T WATCH SPORTS SO I DON'T KNOW" stuff.

ARTEEST

Not to mention that the dude's been a walking news story for the past 5 years. If you watch ESPN once in a while you're gonna hear about Artest. He's pretty much a wrestling character playing basketball.

And now the whole nation - pulpit and all - will take up the war-cry, and shout itself hoarse, and mob any honest man who ventures to open his mouth; and presently such mouths will cease to open.

I remember it used to be that I didn't agree with Alvarez and this entire forum did and now I agree with him quite often and the forum usually doesn't. Crazy.

Also he has been trying to get the Rock to have a match with him for an entire year except I'm not totally sure Artest knows wrestling is not real.

It made sense in context too since Ron Artest is a guy who is a big advocate for mental health rights and is self-admitted crazy.

Bryan was being especially stupid and idiotic on the breaking news podcast. He kept saying Joe Rogan wouldn't say stupid poo poo on Fox (I agree) that would get him fired, Dave brought up his twitter and him calling a reporter a stinkyhole on it and Bryan pretty much brushed it aside as if things he said on the internet does not count. It got to the point where Dave just ignored him and moved on.

Disappointment to a noble soul is what cold water is to burning metal; it strengthens, tempers, intensifies, but never destroys it.

Ha ha, Piper sounded like he had just came back from Afghanistan after attending the Gathering of the Juggalos. Had to laugh at him mentioning "Snoopy Doggy" was there.

Dshban, I really enjoy SWF, but god loving dammit, get Baddie a loving hooked on phonics program, because it is getting extremely annoying to listen to him read e-mails like a 4th grader. He stumbles over every goddamn word and has trouble pronouncing simple things. I understand a lot of the emails have bad grammar in them, so loving preread them. Its to the point I simply turn the volume down as soon as he starts to read anything. Larry does the same thing, but he is drunk so at least he has an excuse.

He's gotten better though! I made fun of him one time for his stilted reading and he pretended to turn heel or something for a week and now at least reads at a good pace.

But yeah I know this is a problem. I try to remedy this by correcting him but then I get told off for doing so.

I'll bring it up the next time I'm on the show with him before we record, asking us all to pre-read while the previous person is reading.
